She has decided to cut off her two children without a penny and leave her fortune to someone who has only weeks to live . . . Among Lady Playford s guests are two men she has never met the famous Belgian detective, Hercule Poirot, and Inspector Edward Catchpool of Scotland Yard. Neither knows why he has been invited . . . until Poirot starts to wonder if Lady Playford expects a murderer to strike.

Audiokniha: Občas ochotná oběť.Blíží se Silvestr 1932 a na malebném řeckém ostrově Lamperos se chystá nový rok přivítat i Hercule Poirot. A protože inspektor Catchpool miluje plavání v moři, samozřejmě svého přítele doprovází. Ubytují se v Domě trvalé pohostinnosti ležícím v zátoce Liakada, kde jsou všichni vítáni. Bez ohledu na jejich minulost. Jednou ze zásad náboženského hnutí Nashe Athanasioua, fungujícího na tomto místě, je totiž odpuštění – trvalé a bezpodmínečné. Slavnostní večer nabere nečekaný směr ve chvíli, kdy je v rámci hry na novoroční předsevzetí anonymně oznámena vražda. Obětí má být „Défteri Foní“ – druhý hlas komunity, sympatický Matthew Fair. Lze toto ohlášení brát vážně? Muž s nečekaným cejchem smrti si myslí, že o žádnou skutečnou hrozbu nejde. Někdo si jen dělá legraci a on se vždy rád zasměje. Ale jo, klidně bude i oběť vraždy... Doopravdy? Nový sváteční příběh s geniálním detektivem! Kdo z uzavřeného okruhu podezřelých spáchal neodpustitelný zločin? „Fanouškům, kteří doufají, že Poirota předběhnou v tomto ohromně geniálním řešení, se doporučuje, aby soutěž předem vzdali.“ – Kirkus Reviews„Hannah opět dokazuje, že je dobrou studentkou i vynalézavou spisovatelkou – přináší příběh, který ctí Poirotovu historii, aniž by působil jako pouhá napodobenina. Fanoušci detektivek zlatého věku si přijdou na své!“ – Publishers Weekly„Nedokážu slovy vyjádřit, jak jsem vděčná Sophie Hannah za to, že Agathu Christie i Hercula Poirota nadále udržuje při životě na stránkách svých ďábelsky chytrých detektivek. Poirotův duch se v tomto příběhu projevuje v plné míře!“ – BookReporter.com„Život končí v jediném okamžiku, mademoiselle,“ řekl Poirot tiše. „Na rozdíl od vraždy, která začíná záměrem – často celé roky předtím, než je zločin spáchán. Ale smrt? Člověk je živý a pak náhle živý není.“ – ukázka z knihy

The Green Hill - Sophie Pierce
In 2017, Sophie Pierceâ ™s life changed forever when her twenty-year-old son Felix died suddenly and unexpectedly. Thrown into an unimaginable new reality, she had to find a way to survive. By writing letters to Felix â “ composed during walks and swims taken close to his burial place by the River Dart â “ Sophie gradually learned how to live in the landscape of sudden loss, navigating the weather and tides of grief. The Green Hill collects these letters alongside Sophieâ ™s account of the years following Felixâ ™s death, into which she weaves poignant memories of his life. What results is a deeply moving, beautifully captured record of how â “ amid the rivers and rocks of Dartmoor, and in the sea off the South Devon coast â “ Sophie was able to hold on to and nurture her bond with Felix, both in her mind and through a physical engagement with the landscape: actively mourning, rather than grieving. This book is a celebration of the natural world and the role it plays in our lives and relationships, as well as an examination of how beauty, a sense of place and the passing seasons can help us contend with our own mortality. Above all, The Green Hill is one womanâ ™s story of navigating through trauma and loss, and towards a fragile, complicated kind of joy. In The Green Hill, Sophie Pierce writes about the sudden death of her son Felix with an aching and gentle honesty. Struggling to come to terms with the loss not only of the young man he was, but everything that he would eventually become, she finds herself overwhelmed not only by grief, but also by love. Her writing is illuminated by a remarkable attention to the beauty and consolation of the natural world, and by the wisdom and tenderness which has been so painfully acquired. This is a book that will be a great comfort to those who need it Sarah Perry, author of The Essex Serpent and Melmoth Unforgettable, necessary.

Jeho dcera proto nemá s ostatními slečnami ze svého okolí příliš společného. Nedbá totiž na zažité konvence a nepředstírá slabost a poddajnost, tak typické pro mladou dámu. Naopak se vždycky snaží prosadit svou, a co jí nechybí především, je smysl pro humor. Její chování je mnohým trnem v oku, a některé přímo pobuřuje! Ani Charles, její bratranec, z ní není kdovíjak nadšený. Člověk však míní a život mění… Ze čtenářských ohlasů: „Bylo to vtipné, duchaplné, poutavé, prostě úžasné!“ „Od chvíle, kdy se Sophie objeví na scéně, víte, že vás čeká zábavné čtení!“ „Skvělá kniha – Sophie je vtipná a rozkošná.

BENEDICT MACDONALDJoin Sophie Pavelle on a low-carbon journey around Britain in search of ten animals and habitats threatened by climate change in the 21st century.Forget-me-not â “ a beautiful flower and a plea from our islandsâ ™ wildlife. When climate change has driven dozens of our most charismatic species to extinction, will they be forgotten?Like many of her generation, Sophie Pavelle is determined to demand action on climate change. In her hilarious and thought-provoking first book, she describes the trips she took to see ten rare native species: species that could disappear by 2050 and be forgotten by the end of the century if their habitats continue to decline.Sophie challenged herself to find them the low-carbon way, travelling the length of Britain on foot, by bicycle, in an electric car, by kayak, on ferries and in a lot of trains. From Bodmin Moor to the Orkney Islands, Sophie encountered species on the frontline of climate change in Britain. Which are going to be seriously affected, and why? Could some bounce back from the brink? Or are we too late to save them?Forget Me Not is a clarion call: we all need to play a part in tackling this most existential of threats. Everyone can see wildlife in the British Isles without contributing to its destruction. With joyful irreverence, Sophie shows us we can dare to hope. Journey with her, and she may even inspire you to take action for nature and head out on your own low-carbon adventure.

Nothing Stopped Sophie - Cheryl Bardoe
The true story of eighteenth-century mathematician Sophie Germain, who solved the unsolvable to achieve her dream. When her parents took away her candles to keep their young daughter from studying math...nothing stopped Sophie. When a professor discovered that the homework sent to him under a male pen name came from a woman...nothing stopped Sophie. And when she tackled a math problem that male scholars said would be impossible to solve...still, nothing stopped Sophie. For six years, Sophie Germain used her love of math and her undeniable determination to test equations that would predict patterns of vibrations. She eventually became the first woman to win a grand prize from France #39;s prestigious Academy of Sciences for her formula, which laid the groundwork for much of modern architecture (and can be seen in the book #39;s illustrations). Award-winning author Cheryl Bardoe #39;s inspiring and poetic text is brought to life by acclaimed artist Barbara McClintock #39;s intricate pen-and-ink, watercolor, and collage illustrations in this true story about a woman who let nothing stop her.

The Flying Child - A Cautionary Fairytale for Adults - Patricia Walsh, Sophie Olson
⠘And then came the session where I felt I would give up. I felt frustrated as I⠙d worked so hard on trying to speak but the most important words; the worst ones, had simply not come out. I implied I would not necessarily come back the following week and as I got up to leave the room, Pat said, ⠘Try detaching from it entirely. Try writing it as a fairy story. Start with the words, once upon a time there was a little girl⠙.  That evening, I tried. I sat on my bed and typed on the note⠙s app of my phone Once Upon A Time ⠦ and finally, four decades after the abuse began, the words started to flow.⠙ This book documents the therapeutic journey undertaken by Sophie and her therapist, Pat. It includes all chapters of the fairy tale and the drawings Sophie created to help her make sense of her experiences and to reconnect with herself. It also contains the many in-between session conversations Pat and Sophie had by email, WhatsApp, and texts, with important insights into how to work safely with trauma.  Essential reading for all therapists, counsellors, health professionals, educators, and social workers, interested in understanding or working with survivors of child sexual abuse, and for those who are survivors of sexual abuse, The Flying Child ⠓ A Cautionary Fairy Tale for Adults- Finding a purposeful life after Child Sexual Abuse through compassionate and creative therapy ⠓ is a must- have for your bookshelf.  Today, Sophie is a survivor activist, writer, founder and managing director of The Flying Child: a non-profit, National Lottery Community Funded organisation improving the awareness of child sexual abuse and the consequences of trauma. The core aim of The Flying Child is to normalise speaking about CSA. The Flying Child Project brings lived experience into the heart of professional settings, providing training in Education, Social Work and Healthcare.  Pat Walsh is an experiential and intuitive counsellor with over forty years⠙ experience of working in trauma. Her background in nursing and occupational therapy taught her that to heal properly, wounds must be deeply cleansed, and purpose and meaning must be established to build any long -lasting recovery. She brings these learnings into her therapeutic work with survivors of sexual violence and childhood sexual abuse.

Sophie’s World: A Graphic Novel About the History of Philosophy, Vol II: From Descartes to the Present Day is the second adaptation continuing Jostein Gaarder’s worldwide philosophy bestseller reimagined by writer Vincent Zabus and artist Nicoby. Sophie’s come a long way since the day she received that cryptic letter with its intriguing question: “Who are you?” The mysterious correspondence sweeps our curious young heroine off on a tour of Western philosophy from its ancient foundations through the Renaissance. But it also prompts more personal reflection: What is my place in the world, my purpose in life? And just who is that girl, a stranger and yet so familiar, I glimpse in the mirror? Sophie’s quest for answers will see her explore major schools of modern thought from Descartes and Locke to Freud and Marx. She and her quizzical philosophy teacher Alberto, now unmasked, struggles with the possibility that they are characters in a book. As ever, our intrepid heroine remains forthright and open-hearted. In this witty comics adaptation, Zabus and Nicoby reinvent Jostein Gaarder’s novel of ideas—a beloved bestseller that has already won the hearts of over 50 million readers around the world—to bring Sophie’s charming quest for meaning to a whole new medium and a new generation.

H. Osborn reveals how the harmful environmental choices we⠙ve made⠔including pesticide use, the introduction of invasive species, lead poisoning, and habitat destruction⠔have decimated Peregrine Falcons, Hawaiian Crows, and California Condors.In the Rocky Mountains, the cloud forests of Hawai⠙i, and the Grand Canyon, Sophie and her colleagues work day-to-day to try to reintroduce these birds to the wild, even when it seems that the odds are steeply stacked against their survival.With humor and suspense, Feather Trails introduces us to the fascinating behaviors and unique personalities of Sophie⠙s avian charges and shows that what endangers them ultimately threatens all life on our planet.More than a deeply researched environmental investigation, Feather Trails is also a personal journey and human story, in which Sophie overcomes her own obstacles⠔among them heat exhaustion, poachers, rattlesnakes, and chauvinism.Ultimately, Feather Trails is an inspiring, poignant narrative about endangered birds and how our choices can help to ensure a future not only for the rarest species, but for us too. A personal tale and a meticulously researched environmental history of modern America.⠙ Mark Cocker for The Spectator

The Body Is a Doorway: A Memoir - Sophie Strand
In this lyrical, radically expansive self-portrait, celebrated poet, author, and lecturer Sophie Strand explores-with searing insight and honesty-the intersecting spaces of her own chronic illness, the complex ecology of a changing world, and the very nature of the stories we tell ourselves. At age sixteen Sophie Strand-bright, agile, fearless-is suddenly beset by unexplained, debilitating illness while on a family trip abroad. Her once vibrant life becomes a tangled miasma of medication, specialists, anaphylaxis, and seemingly never-ending attempts to explain what has gone so terribly wrong. And, for many years thereafter, Sophie s life becomes subsumed with ideas not of health, but of explanation, and the narrative of how and why she became sick. But slowly, through both profound fatigue with the medical industrial complex and a deeply entwined relationship with the natural world, she comes to another, more fundamental understanding of what has happened to her body. What if sickness is not a separation from the body? What if health is not quite so easy to see? What if physical pain leaves us no choice but to return to our bodies, the pinpricks and lightning of illness stitching us back into a physical presence our society has taught us to ignore? In a work both expansively tender and shockingly frank, Sophie Strand offers readers a window onto her own winding journey through the maze of chronic illness-a web not unlike those created by the mycorrizhal fungi whose networks she begins to see as a metaphor for the profound connections between all species and the earth. Grounded deeply in the mountains of the Hudson Valley, each moment of this far-reaching narrative snakes its way through the multi-layered ecology of the land around us, from the stunningly powerful pollen of a phlox plant to the unexpected beauty and wisdom of the woodchuck. The Body Is a Doorway dives into the murky waters of sickness and trauma, as well as the resonant challenges and joys of friendship, young adulthood, first love, and fertility. Throughout, in precise, sparkling language, it explores questions both personal and universal: Is there healing beyond the human? Beyond the hope for a cure or a happy ending? Is there something wilder and more symbiotic beyond narrow ideas of well-being?

Driving Forwards - Sophie L Morgan
A book that ll change your perspective on life. You ll not be able to put it down. Fearne Cotton Everyone should read this book. Sophie Morgan is the epitome of grit and determination. Her writing is thought provoking, honest and in parts hilarious. Katie Piper OBE Wrenchingly honest...eye-opening and deeply moving. ***** Mail on SundayAs seen on Living Wild; How to Change your Life a two-part prime-time series on Channel 4, Loose Women and The Great Celebrity Bake Off for SU2COn the precipice of starting her adult life, aged eighteen, Sophie, a rebellious and incorrigible wild child, crashed her car and was instantly paralysed from the chest down. Rushed to hospital, everything she had dreamed for her life was instantly forgotten and her journey to rediscover herself and build a different life began. But being told she would never walk again would come to be the least of her concerns.Over the next eighteen years, as she strived to come to terms with the change in her body, her relationships were put to the test; she has had to learn to cope with the many unexpected and unpredictable setbacks of living with paralysis; she has had to overcome her own and other people s perceptions of disability and explore the limits of her abilities, all whilst searching for love, acceptance, meaning, identity, and purpose.Driving Forwards is a remarkable and powerful memoir, detailing Sophie s life-changing injury, her recovery, and her life since. Strikingly honest, her story is unusual and yet relatable, inspiring us to see how adversity can be channelled into opportunity and how ongoing resilience can ultimately lead to empowerment. Raw, life affirming and gorgeously written - this book is filled with extraordinary honesty, courage and warmth. Sophie s words will make us all braver and more hopeful. Daisy Buchanan A truly astonishing read about the power of never giving up. Sun F***king hell!! This book is absolutely brilliant . . . One of the best memoirs I ve ever read. Honest and so blooming human, it s fantastic. Kathy Burke
